Definitions
- the inventionrelates to the field of information transmission and telecommunications, and in particular to transponders comprising a transmitting and/or receiving antenna.

- the pair of transpondersis notable in that the second antenna is arranged and configured so that the second transponder forms a resonator circuit of the first antenna.
- the two transpondersmake it possible, on the one hand, to associate two different functions in the same electronic device, and on the other hand, each transponder forms a resonator circuit for the other transponder in order to improve the communication distance.
- the resonator circuit formed by the second transponder, and in particular by its antennamakes it possible to improve the communication distance of the spiral antenna by 10 to 20%.
- transponderscan meet specific operating standards while maintaining a reduced footprint.
- this watchmay be provided with a payment system usable as a short distance payment bank card, and with another function.

- the first electronic system and the second electronic systemeach comprise a capacitance, so that each resonator circuit comprises a capacitance arranged in parallel with the first or the second set of turns
- the first transponderhas a first function, for example payment
- the second transponderhas a second function different from the first function, for example access control.
- the transpondersare of the NFC type, in particular to serve as a means of payment.

- the spiralforms a dial of the timepiece.
- FIG. 1On the figure 1 , is shown an embodiment of a pair of transponders 1 comprising a first transponder 10 and a second transponder 12.
- the communication protocolis for example NFC (for Near Field Communication in English), or CCP in French (for Near Field Communication).
- This technologyis used in particular for means of payment, for example for payment cards, which can pay remotely using so-called “contactless” terminals.
- the first transponder 10comprises a first electronic system 3 for managing the sending and reception of data and the second transponder 12 comprises a second electronic system 9 for managing the sending and reception of data.
- the pair of transponders 1further comprises a spiral-shaped antenna 2.
- the spiral 2comprises a wound ribbon forming a plurality of concentric turns 11, which extends substantially in the same plane in order to minimize the thickness of the antenna. Thus, all the turns 11 of the spiral 2 are wound in the same plane.
- the first electronic system 3 and the second electronic system 9are for example integrated circuits equipped with a chip configured to manage NFC type communications.
- Each electronic system 3, 9is connected to the spiral 2 by two connection points 6, 7, 18, 19 arranged on the ribbon.
- a first pair of wires 25connects the two first connection points 6, 7 to the first electronic system 3.
- a second pair of wires 26connect the two second connection points 18, 19 to the second electronic system 3.
- the wires 25, 26are for example soldered, or glued with a conductive glue, to the connection points 6, 7, 18, 19 and to the integrated circuit.
- the turns 11 included between the two connection points 6, 7 of the first transponder 10form a first set of turns 4, and therefore a first antenna of the first transponder 10.
- the first set of turns 4comprises several adjacent turns which are the most eccentric of the spiral 2, and whose radius of curvature is the highest.
- the first set of turns 4includes two complete turns.
- the first set of turns 4can of course include more, for example three, four, five or more, or a single turn or part of a turn.
- the turns 11 included between the two connection points 18, 19 of the second transponder 12form a second set of turns 5, and therefore a second antenna of the second transponder 12.
- the second set of turns 5comprises several adjacent turns, which follow the turns 11 of the first set of turns 4.
- the turns 11 of the second set of turns 5are more concentric than those of the first set of turns 4. They have a radius of curvature smaller than that of the turns of the first set of turns 4.
- the first two connection points 6, 7are preferably arranged at the two ends of the first set of external turns 4. In other words, the two connection points 6, 7 are respectively arranged at the most eccentric point and at the most concentric point of the first set of turns 4.
- the two second connection points 18, 19are preferably arranged at the two ends of the second set of turns 5.
- the two second connection points 18, 19are respectively arranged at the most eccentric point and at the most concentric point of the second set of turns 5.
- the first set of turns 4 and the second set of turns 5are disjoint, so that the spiral 2 is discontinuous.
- the spiral 2comprises two distinct parts separated by a caesura 8 arranged at the border of the first set of turns 4 and the second set of turns 5.
- the two sets of turns 4, 5are not directly connected to each other.
- the caesura 8is preferably arranged after the most concentric connection point 6 of the two connection points 6, 7. Thus, the two connection points 6, 7 are not connected to the second set of turns 5.
- the spiral 2comprises a third set of turns 23 extending outside the connection points 6, 7 of the first 10 and the second transponder 12.
- the third set of turns 23is free from connection. In other words, there is no connection on the third set of turns 23, whether with the first electronic system 3 or the second electronic system 9.
- the most concentric turns 11 of the spiral 2form the third set of turns 23.
- the third set of turns 23comprises all the internal turns 11 from the most concentric connection point 18 of the spiral 2.
- the third set of turns 23here comprises at least twenty-five turns. It can of course include fewer or more, for example ten, twenty, thirty turns or more.
- the third set of turns 23makes it possible to improve the range of remote data transmission between these transponders 10, 12 and another transponder or a terminal. Indeed, the third set of turns 23 makes it possible to accumulate more energy than the first set of turns 4 or the second set of turns 5 alone. This additional energy thus makes it possible to increase the transmission distance.
- the first set of turns 4, the second set of turns 5 and the third set of turns 23extend in the same plane.
- the first transponder 10forms a resonator circuit of the second transponder 12
- the second transponder 12forms a resonator circuit of the first transponder 10.
- a resonator circuitmakes it possible to improve the communication range of a transponder antenna .
- the second transponder 12is inactive, when the first transponder 10 is active, and the first transponder 10 is inactive when the second transponder 12 is active, to avoid possible interference in the communications of each transponder 10, 12.
- the first 3 and the second electronic system 9each include a capacity.
- each capacitoris connected in parallel to the corresponding set of turns 11. Thanks to a resonator circuit equipped with a capacitor, each transponder 10, 12 further increases the range of data transfer by 30 to 40%.
- this pair of transponders 1makes it possible to associate two different functions.
- the first transponder 10has a first function
- the second transponder 12has a second function.
- the second functionis preferably different from the first function.
- the first functionis a payment function, similar to a bank card

- Such a pair of transponders 1can be used in an electronic product.
- a timepiececonfigured to make payments like a bank card.
- the NFC type transponderallows, for example, short-distance payment, called “contactless”.
- the transponder with the most efficient antennais associated with the most demanding function regarding standards. requested for the communication distance, for example for the payment function.
- the first antennahaving the best range, we choose the first transponder 10 for this more demanding function. This way, we can meet the standards more easily.
- a watch 30comprising a pair of transponders according to the invention.
- the watch 30comprises a case 31, in which is housed a clock movement, preferably an electronic movement, and hands 32 to indicate the time.
- the pair of transponders 1is also arranged in the housing 31.
- the spiral 22 of the pair of transpondersis used as the dial of the watch 30.

Description
Translated fromFrenchL'invention concerne le domaine des transmissions de l'information et des télécommunications, et en particulier les transpondeurs comportant une antennes d'émission et/ou de réception.The invention relates to the field of information transmission and telecommunications, and in particular to transponders comprising a transmitting and/or receiving antenna.
Les transpondeurs sont des appareils électroniques configurés pour transmettre et/ou recevoir des données. Il existe des transpondeurs passifs de type RFID (pour Radio Frequency Identification en anglais), qui sont souvent destinés à coder et enregistrer des produits de consommation.Transponders are electronic devices configured to transmit and/or receive data. There are passive RFID type transponders (for Radio Frequency Identification in English), which are often intended to encode and record consumer products.
D'autres transpondeurs passifs sont par exemple utilisés dans les terminaux et cartes bancaires, par exemple pour un paiement sans contact. Ces transpondeurs sont généralement de type NFC (pour Near Field Communication en anglais), et permettent un transfert de données à faible distance.Other passive transponders are for example used in terminals and bank cards, for example for contactless payment. These transponders are generally of the NFC type (for Near Field Communication in English), and allow data transfer over a short distance.
La communication s'établie entre deux terminaux, chaque terminal comprenant un système électronique pour gérer et enregistrer les données, ainsi qu'une antenne pour transmettre et recevoir les données de l'autre terminal.Communication is established between two terminals, each terminal comprising an electronic system for managing and recording data, as well as an antenna for transmitting and receiving data from the other terminal.
L'antenne a une grande importance pour déterminer la distance de fonctionnement de l'émission/réception entre les terminaux, mais ses dimensions doivent être très réduites pour limiter l'encombrement des terminaux. A cette fin, il existe des antennes en forme de portion de spirale, qui permettent d'avoir une longueur d'antenne suffisante dans un minimum de place. Le nombre de spires détermine l'inductance de l'antenne. Les points de connexion du système électronique sont agencés aux deux extrémités de la portion de spirale, c'est-à-dire à l'extrémité externe et à l'extrémité interne de la portion de spiral pour avoir une inductance suffisante et pour arriver à une distance de communication maximale.The antenna is of great importance in determining the operating distance of transmission/reception between the terminals, but its dimensions must be very small to limit the bulk of the terminals. To this end, there are antennas in the shape of a spiral portion, which allow a sufficient antenna length to be had in a minimum of space. The number of turns determines the inductance of the antenna. The connection points of the electronic system are arranged at both ends of the spiral portion, that is to say at the external end and at the internal end of the hairspring portion to have sufficient inductance and to achieve a maximum communication distance.
Quand cela ne suffit pas, une deuxième antenne est agencée en parallèle de la première antenne, afin d'augmenter la distance de communication. La deuxième antenne fonctionne comme un circuit résonateur, de sorte que la fréquence nominale de l'ensemble des deux antennes ne change pas par rapport à la fréquence nominale de la portion de spirale seule. Grâce à la deuxième antenne, on obtient une augmentation de la distance de communication.When this is not enough, a second antenna is arranged in parallel with the first antenna, in order to increase the communication distance. The second antenna functions as a resonator circuit, so that the nominal frequency of the two antennas together does not change compared to the nominal frequency of the spiral portion alone. Thanks to the second antenna, an increase in the communication distance is achieved.
Cependant, la deuxième antenne occupe un volume qui sert seulement à cela. Ainsi, elle a cette unique fonction de former un circuit résonateur.However, the second antenna occupies a volume which is only used for this purpose. Thus, it has this unique function of forming a resonator circuit.
Par ailleurs, un transpondeur est généralement configuré pour effectuer une fonction unique. Par exemple, un transpondeur a soit pour fonction de permettre des paiements, soit de s'enregistrer ou de passer une barrière dans des transports en commun.Furthermore, a transponder is usually configured to perform a single function. For example, a transponder has the function of either enabling payments, registering or passing through a barrier on public transport.
Ainsi, pour obtenir plusieurs fonctions, il est nécessaire d'associer plusieurs transpondeurs.Thus, to obtain several functions, it is necessary to associate several transponders.
L'invention a pour but de remédier aux inconvénients précités, et vise à fournir une paire de transpondeurs permettant d'associer deux fonctions différentes tout en gardant des antennes de dimensions réduites mais assurant la distance adéquate de communication.The invention aims to remedy the aforementioned drawbacks, and aims to provide a pair of transponders making it possible to associate two different functions while keeping antennas of reduced dimensions but ensuring the adequate communication distance.
La paire de transpondeurs comprend un premier transpondeur muni d'un premier système électronique de gestion de l'envoi et de la réception de données et d'une première antenne, le premier système électronique étant connecté à la première antenne, la paire de transpondeurs comprenant un deuxième transpondeur muni d'un deuxième système électronique de gestion de l'envoi et de la réception de données et d'une deuxième antenne, le deuxième système électronique étant connecté à la deuxième antenne.The pair of transponders comprises a first transponder provided with a first electronic system for managing the sending and reception of data and a first antenna, the first electronic system being connected to the first antenna, the pair of transponders comprising a second transponder provided with a second system electronic system for managing the sending and reception of data and a second antenna, the second electronic system being connected to the second antenna.
La paire de transpondeurs est remarquable en ce que la deuxième antenne est disposée et configurée pour que le deuxième transpondeur forme un circuit résonateur de la première antenne.The pair of transponders is notable in that the second antenna is arranged and configured so that the second transponder forms a resonator circuit of the first antenna.
Ainsi, les deux transpondeurs permettent, d'une part, d'associer deux fonctions différentes dans un même dispositif électronique, et d'autre part, chaque transpondeur forme un circuit résonateur pour l'autre transpondeur afin d'améliorer la distance de communication.Thus, the two transponders make it possible, on the one hand, to associate two different functions in the same electronic device, and on the other hand, each transponder forms a resonator circuit for the other transponder in order to improve the communication distance.
En effet, le circuit résonateur formé par le deuxième transpondeur, et en particulier par son antenne permet d'améliorer la distance de communication de l'antenne spirale de 10 à 20%. Ainsi, les transpondeurs peuvent répondre à des normes de fonctionnement spécifiques tout en conservant un encombrement réduit.Indeed, the resonator circuit formed by the second transponder, and in particular by its antenna, makes it possible to improve the communication distance of the spiral antenna by 10 to 20%. Thus, transponders can meet specific operating standards while maintaining a reduced footprint.
Grâce à l'invention, on peut utiliser des dispositifs électroniques particuliers, par exemple une pièce d'horlogerie de type montre, pour des utilisations de transferts de données de type NFC, et qui ont deux fonctions. En particulier, cette montre peut être munie d'un système de paiement utilisable comme une carte bancaire de paiement à faible distance, et d'une autre fonction.Thanks to the invention, it is possible to use particular electronic devices, for example a watch-type timepiece, for NFC-type data transfer uses, and which have two functions. In particular, this watch may be provided with a payment system usable as a short distance payment bank card, and with another function.
